“Forgive me Master, I’m just a Stupid Man.”

I’ve lived my life mong Worthy Men,
And Sacred Women Too!
They were People who at Holy Times,
Knew just what To do.

I, however, stumbled in,
On Holy Ground, wore Boots
And Time and Time again – a stupid Grin
Danced across my Smoot.

I Skipped when it was right To kneel
I laughed, when time Cry
I shelped, and Shelped about
When I should of had  a Try.

I stumble into Sacred Space
My hand – would touched the Ark.
When a Whisper –  was the thing, I’d yell
And echos filled the dark.

I never do the Proper Thing.
I always come up short.
When Holy ones stand in awe
I just let out a snort.

I know I yearn to be a Saint.
Be Holy, through and through
Look up when I am bathed in Light,
But, dumb was what I’d do.

I’d Be Honest, Right –  be True and Good
That’s Always been My Plan,
But when Celestial Math is Done
I’m just a Stupid Man.
